Immortal Desire
Chapter 16

Fluffy white clouds spread overhead. It was a nice day. However, after analyzing what had happened since he woke up, Sebastian could not tell which part of the day was supposed to be pleasant for him. If it was the weather then he wouldn’t argue with that. But seeing how things became messy, Sebastian should expect the worse to come.

“My lord,” Claudia, who was wearing a white satin robe, bent her body, showing her shining cleavage, greeted. After contemplating for days, Claudia decided to do something. She was certain that her hard work would pay off. She got some items from the sacred cave where Latina came from. With her skills, she knew she’d succeed.

“Woman, you may think you’re brave enough to step inside my mansion. Get out of here!” Sebastian, with his furious tone, yelled. He glared at Claudia, who dared not make a move. “Get lost!” he added, expecting the other to obey him.

If it was before, Claudia would then shake and stutter, but she changed. She had already decided. “My lord, I may not be as powerful as her,” Claudia threw a gaze at Latina who remained unconscious in Sebastian’s arms, “But I’m still your mate. We were destined, and you knew that I won’t be able to conceive with someone else’s child. It’s your sole responsibility as my mate and as the lord. She was just lucky to be born as a true-b***d! You chose her and slept with her, but nothing happened! What about me? You abandoned me like I’m nobody…”

“You are nobody,” Sebastian deadpanned her.

Claudia’s body trembled upon hearing the man’s response. She knew that there was a very low chance to convince the lord to sleep with her. But she was well-prepared and wouldn’t give up just yet. “I’m your mate and that despicable lady in your arms belongs to someone else,” Claudia whispered but enough for Sebastian to hear it. “No matter how much you try to avoid me, if I insist, you won’t be able to resist because we’re perfectly matched. You can sleep with others, but you will always be mine. Latina won’t be capable of conceiving your child and you’ll come back to me then.”

Claudia’s words boiled Sebastian’s b***d. In a swift motion, a loud and clear slapping sound resounded. It twisted her face to the side.

“Bitch, I chose not to touch you not because I respect the fact that you’re my mate but because you’re not worth it. Be grateful that I wasted my energy just to slap your filthy mouth. One more word against Latina coming from you and I’ll send you back to the abyss garden, you can sleep there for eternity and never come back above ground,” Sebastian said before walking away, leaving Claudia behind him.

‘Watch me, my lord,’ Claudia thought, looking at the man’s back, fading away. ‘If you can’t even spare me a glance, I know that you will with Latina’s essence.’

Sebastian kicked the door of their chamber open. He put Latina down on the bed, brushed some strands of her hair from her face, and removed the coat which had Seth’s smell before tucking her under the blanket.

“Sleep tight, Sweetheart,” Sebastian whispered before getting off the bed. He walked to the windows and closed them. Although the sun won’t hurt them, he would though prefer it if the chamber was slightly dark.

His brows furrowed when he realized that Claudia hadn’t left yet. He could still feel her presence. “She won’t learn her lesson until I give her a beating,” he muttered and returned to the living room.

The place went foggy when Sebastian stepped in. He stopped. “Darn it!” Sebastian clicked his tongue when he remembered something important. Claudia Lachouves was a well-known alchemist in the b***d tribe. She could kill a hundred beasts while having her ‘meal’. Sebastian wasn’t worried about Claudia’s ability alone. But given that she was his mate, he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to resist the urge once she uses a charm potion.

Sebastian slit his pulse, letting his b***d ooze. He knew that it wasn’t enough since he could easily get his wound healed but as long as he felt his b***d flowing out, he could at least stay sane and be reminded of how Latina sucked his juice.

The vampire lord admitted that he took Latina out of the sacred cave only for the sole reason, to bear his child. Latina might not be pregnant until now. And since she hadn’t given birth for now, not even pregnant, he will keep her safe and focus his attention only on her. He might let her go once everything was already in place. Sebastian would eliminate anyone who tried to ruin his plan, may it be a friend or a foe.

“It’s useless, Claudia,” Sebastian said while standing still. He chose not to act and wait for Claudia’s next step. He was not disappointed when Claudia went closer to where he stood.

‘How naïve,’ he thought.

“You won’t know unless I try,” Claudia muttered.

The lord felt his mate’s presence behind him. He bit his lips until they bled and sipped on it, just like how Latina imbibed on his bleeding l*p whenever they went wild. Sebastian felt a pair of arms hugging him from the back. He was sure it was Claudia, but he could smell Latina’s sweet scent.

“Latina?” Sebastian called. When he didn’t get any response, he pulled the arms wrapped on him to see who it was. The fog was getting thicker, and it was harder for him to confirm his doubts. “You’re not Latina. I’ll kill you if you won’t stop, Claudia,” he warned.

“Sebastian…”

Just like that, Sebastian’s heart raced. After hearing that sweet voice, it would be hard to believe that it wasn’t Latina.

“Sweetheart,” Sebastian muttered. He wasn’t sure why the smoke remained and it might be Claudia’s scheme, but he had the urge to hug the lady in front of her. She smelled and sounded like her, and he wanted to protect her.

“Sweetie, let’s go out from here first until the fog disappears.”

Sebastian pulled the lady with him and led the way, but he stopped on his track when he felt another presence. He held the lady’s waist and drew her closer to him so they wouldn’t get separated. It surprised Sebastian when the lady pulled him for a k**s. It was rough and messy, but he didn’t mind it as long as it was Latina. He deepened the k**s and stroked her lips with his tongue, the other gave him access.

The k**s turned into a hot make-out session. Sebastian went impatient and undressed the lady. ‘If Claudia finds us doing it, she might give up and stop pestering me,’ he thought as he fondled the lady’s breast.

They were in such an intimate position when the door was forcefully pushed open. The fog disappeared, revealing the truth behind the alluring lady who got a hold of the vampire lord for a moment.
